Customers Real Shutters Self Install Projects

Doug from Round Lake, Illinois was looking for an effective window treatment for a large window in his home. As such, he considered differnet options, wanting to make the window attractive with a dramatic window treatment. Wood shutters were the solution Doug chose, having considered blinds as an alternative to shutters. Doug continues,

"I had a large (70" x 70") window that needed a dramatic, attractive window treatment. Since the dominant accents in the room were wood, a wood blind or wooden shutter seemed the best fit. I consulted local shutter companies in Illinois but after being disappointed by other choices, I found The Shutter Store online and began designing my project.

The more I worked with my Shutter Store consultant, Deborah, the happier I became. After finalizing the details of style, color, wood grain, and measurements I submitted my order and wondered if the results would live up to my expectations. 

A few weeks later, my shutters were delivered - in perfect condition. I unpacked and was amazed at the beauty of the frames and shutters. I viewed The Shutter Store installation videos online, and was equally impressed with the simplicity of the install. Within a few hours, I had the project complete. To say that my expectations were exceeded is a huge understatement.

I was thrilled with the fit, finish, and operation of the shutters. They looked far better than I anticipated - my photos don't do them justice. The result in the room was spectacular - the shutters transformed the entire space. The completed installation looks professionally done, and the product quality is so rich and flawless that it rivals a piece of fine furniture.

I've invited family and friends over to see and they can't wait to begin their own Shutter Store project. I have a new favorite room in my home, all thanks to The Shutter Store!"
